While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.

And make the nations prove
The glories of his righteousness,

And wonders of his love,
And won- and wonders of his love. Languages: English Tune Title: ANTIOCH

The Song of Jubilee
Author: J. Montgomery Hymnal: Christ in Song #901 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal Return of Christ First Line: Hark! the song of Jubilee Lyrics: 1. Hark! the song of Jubilee;
Loud as mighty thunders roar,
Or the fulness of the sea
When it breaks upon the shore;
Hallelujah! 'tis the Lord!
Lo, he comes on earth to reign;
Hallelujah! let the word
Echo round the earth and main.
2. Hallelujah! hark! the sound
Rises joyful to the skies;
From above, beneath, around,
Wake creation's harmonies:
See Jehovah's banner furl'd,
Sheath'd his sword: he speaks, 'tis done;
Hallelujah! let the word
Echo around the earth and main.
3. He shall reign from pole to pole
With supreme, unbounded sway;
He shall reign, when like a scroll
Yonder heav'ns have pass'd away:
Then beneath his iron rod,
Man's last enemy shall fall;
Hallelujah! to our God,
Lo, he comes to conquer all. Languages: English Tune Title: WATCHMAN

Hail to the Brightness
Author: Thomas Hastings Hymnal: Christ in Song #903 (1908) Topics: The Home Eternal First Line: Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning! Lyrics: 1. Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning!
Joy to the lands that in darkness have lain!
Hushed be the accents of sorrow and mourning:
Zion, in triumph, begins her mild reign.
2. Lo, in the desert, rich flowers are springing;
Streams ever copious are gliding along;
Loud, from the mountaintops, echoes are ringing;
Wastes rise in verdure, and mingle in song.
3. See, the dead risen from land and from ocean;
Praise to Jehovah, ascending on high;
Fall'n are the engines of war and commotion;
Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.

With that melody of peace. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Shall we gather at the river]

Built for us by hands divine? [Refrain]

Brief life is here our portion
Author: Bernard of Cluny Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #612 (1913) Topics: The Last Things The Heavenly Home; The Last Things The Heavenly Home; Eternal Life; Heaven Lyrics: 1 Brief life is here our portion;
Brief sorrow, short-lived care;
The life that knows no ending,
The tearless life is there.
O happy retribution!
Short toil, eternal rest;
For mortals, and for sinners
A mansion with the blest!
2 And now we fight the battle,
But then shall wear the crown
Of full and everlasting
And passionless renown;
And now we watch and struggle,
And now we live in hope,
And Zion in her anguish
With Babylon must cope;
3 But He whom now we trust in
Shall then be seen and known;
And they that know and see Him
Shall have Him for their own.
The morning shall awaken,
And shadows shall decay,
And each true-hearted servant
Shall shine as doth the day.
4 There grief is turned to pleasure,
Such pleasure as below
No human voice can utter,
No human heart can know.
There God, our king and portion,
In fullness of His grace,
Shall we behold for ever,
And worship face to face.
5 O sweet and blessed country,
The home of God's elect!
O sweet and blessed country
That eager hearts expect!
Jesus, in mercy bring us
To that dear land of rest;
Who art, with God the Father
And Spirit, ever blest.

"Forever with the Lord!"
Author: J. Montgomery Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #618 (1913) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Last Things The Heavenly Home; The Last Things The Heavenly Home; Eternal Life; Heaven Lyrics: 1 "Forever with the Lord!"
Amen! so let it be!
Life from the dead is in that word,
'Tis immortality!
2 Here, in the body pent,
Absent from Him I roam,
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent
A day's march nearer home.
3 My Father's house on high,
Home of my soul, how near,
At times, to faith's foreseeing eye,
Thy golden gates appear!
4 Ah!, then my spirit faints
To reach the land I love,
The bright inheritance of saints,
Jerusalem above!
5 "Forever with the Lord!"
O Father, if 'tis Thy will,
The promise of that faithful word
E'en here to me fulfill.
6 Be Thou at my right hand,
Then can I never fail;
Uphold Thou me, and I shall stand;
Fight, and I must prevail.
7 So when my dying breath
Shall rend the veil in twain,
By death I shall escape from death,
To life eternal gain.
8 Knowing as I am known,
How shall I love that word
And oft repeat, before the throne,
"Forever with the Lord!" Tune Title: ["Forever with the Lord!" Amen!]
"Forever with the Lord!"
O God, our help in ages past
Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #47 (1917) Topics: Eternal Home; Home Our eternal; Eternal Home; Home Our eternal Lyrics: 1. O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home:
2. Under the shadow of Thy throne,
Thy saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient in Thine arm alone,
And our defence is sure.
3. Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting Thou art God,
To endless years the same.
4. A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone,
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
5. The busy tribes of flesh and blood,
With all their cares and fears,
Are carried downward by the flood,
And lost in following years.
6. Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
Bears all its sons away;
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
7. O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Be Thou our guide while life shall last,
And our eternal home. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ANN
